    So smoky on patrol tonight! I'm wearing a mask with a valve in it. If it was black I'd look like Darth Vader lol. A larger town 1 1/2 hrs from us had an air quality health index today of 47!!!. Seven is considered high health risk. This is just crazy.

    I have gone completely off the wagon. Peanut M&Ms, ice cream, PB&J sandwiches. I hate stress.

    It's raining here and it's making me sleepy. Anyone got some extra coffee?
    @sufferlandrian - I'd be happy to take some of those m&me off your hands! Hang in there, it'll get better!

    Rain??? What's that?? None in our forecast for the next two weeks and temps around 35C continuing. I'm praying for rain.
    Cute emu btw. And what's with the peacock? Is it crossed with an albino something or other?

    Finally got a ride in last night but had to do it indoors. We have clouds this morning but no chance of rain.

    @jennifer_417 That's so cool!!!

    The weather around here is finally cooling down into the mid 80's and not humid :smiley: So glad the humidity is going down, it's been unbearable lately.

    So, yesterday, a stray cat came running through here, and you would've thought it was a game of bowling for peacocks, the way they went flying in every direction. It was hilarious! I wish I had gotten it on video.

    So I finished a 72 hour shift, walked out to my truck and the battery is dead. :frowning:

    Did you find someone to jump it or did your shift end at an awkward hour? Or do you have one of those handy emerg. battery boosters in your trunk?

    Last week's lemon sunrise (on my way home), this week's "Smoke on the Water" - same photo spot. Yuk, I feel trapped in my recirculated/airconditioned home or car except when I'm wearing a mask at work. I was planning on going out to the beach for a supper picnic, but no dice in these conditions. Summer will be over and I will have gotten to the beach for recreation only a couple times. Heavy sigh... *cough, cough*.

    I keep a battery charger at work for our lawn mower battery or when client batteries die.

    $208 dollars later and I have a new battery. Or as Del from the auto shop in Bickelton would say, a "bat tree". :smile:

    Last shift at the Library before I move permanently to the zoo. I have to say I prefer the animals at the zoo...

    lol. My brother worked at the library when he was in college. Didn't much care for it.

    Do ever wonder why with all the political correctness these days they don't have a stripper or drag queen Barbie?

    I want to see White Trash Barbie. :smile: 300 lbs and chained to the TV playing nothing but soap operas.

    Isn't she already White Trash Barbie?? Just the 'barely post-pubescent' version in the Daisy Dukes?

    She's not 300 lbs and she doesn't come with a 1969 mobile home that has tornados welcome sign on it.
